Consider again the objects you ranked by distance in Part A. Suppose each object emitted a burst of light right now. Rank the objects from left to right based on the amount of time it would take this light to reach Earth, from longest time to shortest time.1. star on far side of Andromeda Galaxy
2. star on near side of Andromeda Galaxy
3. star on far side of Milky Way Galaxy
4. star near center of Milky Way Galaxy
5. Orion Nebula
6. Alpha Centauri
7. Pluto
8. The Sun

Answer:

The Rank the objects from left to right based on the amount of time it would take this light to reach Earth, from longest time to shortest time, is the following:

1. Star on far side of Andromeda Galaxy  --> 2.7 Million light years *1

2. Star on near side of Andromeda Galaxy  --> 2.5 Million light years *2

3. Star on far side of Milky Way Galaxy  --> 66,000 light years *2

4. Star near center of Milky Way Galaxy  --> 25,000 light years *2

5. Orion Nebula  --> from 1,270 to 1,565 light years *2

6. Alpha Centauri  --> 4.37 light years *2

7. Pluto  --> 4.6 light hours *2

8. The Sun --> 8.32 light minutes *2

Clarifications:

*1 - Approach taking into account the fact that the smallest distance plus diameter of the galaxy.

*2 - Data from internet
